Flower visitors have also been observed and analyzed with the aim of clarifying certain pollination aspects of the species including fl ower attractiveness especially to honeybees, and also in order to ascertain its contribution to the bee pasture. The pollen grains of C. coloratum are isopolar, radially symmetrical and medium sized. Polar axis (P) is 26.83±1.77 μm length, and equatorial diameter (E) is 9.17±0.57 μm length. P/E ratio amounts 2.90±0.10 indicating a perprolate shape. In an equa- torial view, the grains are constricted in the equatorial region (bone-shaped), with obtuse polar caps. In polar view, they are triangular with obtuse angles and furrows in the sides of the triangle (interangular). The grains are tricolporate with three straight ectocolpi arranged regularly meridionally, of mean length 14.43±2.17 μm, each of which has one endopore. The characteristic internal thickenings around the protruding, clearly visible endopores (costae) in the constricted equatorial region are obvious in light microscopy. The ornamentation is psilate, irregularly rugulate (“cerebroid”), the exine surface is rather undulating. With regard to the observed fl ower visitors, the following pollination types occurred: melittophily, myophily, sapromyophily, cantharoph- ily, and phalaenophily, and the most frequent pollinator was the honeybee.

The detailed description of the pollen characteristics of this taxon in the present study contributes to taxonomic and melissopalynological research as well as to the pollen atlas of the region. By providing evidence about the fl ower visi- tors, the current study aims to examine certain pollination aspects of the species including fl ower attractiveness, espe- cially to honeybees, and also to establish its contribution as a melliferous plant to bee pastures. Material and methods Distribution of the study species and fl ower morphology related to pollinator attraction Chaerophyllum coloratum L. is an endemic plant, geo- graphically restricted to the Dinaric Alps (Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, Kosovo, Albania), and grow- ing in sunny and dry habitats, amongst shrubs, on rocky grassland and similar Mediterranean-climate terrain (Šilić 1990). The plant is protected by the National Law of Mon- tenegro (Offi cial Gazette of RM, NO. 76/06), and is classi- fi ed as a species of international importance (Ste va nović et al. 1995). Based on the available literature data (Rohlena 1942, Šilić 1990, Bulić 1994, Karaman 1997, Tomović Fig. 2.

Russian resources were registered in VIR collection through All-Russian agricultural exhibition. The local landraces were collected during collection missions in Afghanistan, Iran, Armenia, Uzbekistan, Turkey, etc. In 1926 VIR scientists started to study the collection. From 1928 the new expeditions were arranged to Mediterranean countries, Ethiopia, and Western China by Vavilov, to India by Markovich, to Minor Asia of Zhukovskiy, etc. , and also collection had started to grow by exchange of material with different Institutes and companies. Now VIR Genebank contains genetic resources of different status from more than 90 countries, includes wild species, landraces, old and advanced cultivars, hybrids F1, breeding materials . Umbelliferae collections are divided into two parts: constant (base) catalogue and temporary catalogue. The constant catalogue includes landraces and breeding cultivars with sufficient quantity of seeds in accession. All accessions of constant catalogue are documented for computerized passport data. The temporary catalogue includes the hybrids F1, breeding materials and the samples with insufficient quantity of seeds. These latter cultivars need to

Such systems also undergo a large range of modifications in order to fulfill other ‚cryptical‘ functions, e.g. positioning of innovation buds, vegetative cloning, and vege- tative dispersal. Seedlings should always be the point of departure for any investigation into the structure of geophilous systems. This is because in the ability to survive of geophilous plants it is of primary importance that innovation buds can reach a safe position in the soil by the time the first period hostile to vegetation commences. Our analysis of such systems thus focused on examining the development of 34 species of the Apiaceae, beginning with their germination. Independent of life-form and life-span, all species exhibit noticeable terminal bud movement with the aid of contractile organs. Movement was found to be at least 5 mm, reaching a maximum of 45 mm. All species exhibit a noticeable contraction of the primary root. In most cases the contraction phenomenon also occurs in the hypocotyl, and some species show contraction of their lateral and / or adventitious roots. Analysis of movement shows the functional importance of pulling the inno- vation buds down into the soil.

En total, se han estudiado 697 ejemplares y se han iden- tificado 154 especies, pertenecientes a 39 familias (excepto Staphylinidae). La mayoría de las especies se obtuvieron median- te trapas tipo tubo y multiembudo. Teniendo en cuenta su preferencia por microhábitats específicos, dominan las especies que viven en el leño y en la corteza, seguidas de las especies que habitan en los cuerpos fructíferos de hongos lignícolas y las que frecuentan las cavidades que se forman en los troncos de los árboles añosos. Con respecto al tipo de grupo trófico, las espe- cies xilófagas son las más abundantes, seguidas de las depredadoras y micetófagas. La biodiversidad saproxílica de estos bosques se ha caracterizado por presentar una mayoritaria presencia de especies de distribución europea. Se han identificado algunas especies raras, poco conocidas o indicadoras de la calidad de los bosques.

Two types of electric field screen were used to exclude pests from the greenhouse: single- and double-charged dipolar electric field screens (S- and D-screen, respectively). The S-screen consisted of iron insulated conductor wires (ICWs) arrayed in parallel (ICW-layer), a grounded metal net on either side of the ICW-layer, and a direct current voltage generator. S-screens were attached to the side windows of the greenhouse to repel whiteflies (Bemisia tabaci) that approached the nets. The D-screen was installed in a small anteroom at the greenhouse entrance to capture whiteflies entering through it.

We set the scene referring to the nutrition of 19th century peasants, involving many famine and emergency foods. Later we discuss such issues as children's wild snacks, the association between the decline of plant knowledge and the disappearance of plant use, the effects of over-exploitation, the decrease of the availability of plants due to ecosystem changes, land access rights for foragers and intoxication dangers.
